My Apache installed with mod_throttle support. However, how can I restrict the bandwidth usage by directories and not by virtual server? (Just like geocities.com, their homepage account bandwidth usage would not larger than 500MB monthly)

Thanks,

Yes, you can use mod_throttle to limit bandwidth by directory:

http://www.snert.com/Software/mod_throttle/#ThrottlePolicy

<IfModule mod_throttle.c>
ThrottlePolicy none

<Location /throttle-status>
SetHandler throttle-status
</Location>

<Location /throttle-me>
SetHandler throttle-me
</Location>

<Location /*/throttle-me>
SetHandler throttle-me
</Location>

<Directory /home/DOMAIN/www/*>
SetHandler throttle-me
ThrottlePolicy volume 750M 30d
AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
Options MultiViews ExecCGI Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
<Limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Limit>
<LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</LimitExcept>
</Directory>
</IfModule>

I config it as above in httpd.conf.

Actually, I want every dir. under /www/ can only have 750MB data transfer monthly, but the output is just measure all the data transfer under /www/. Do I have anything wrong?

Thanks,

Kevin

I'm very interested in this as well.
